On the other hand, it wouldn't be anything like enough for my desktop workstation: $ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md/3 19G 7.0G 11G 40% / udev 10M 292K 9.8M 3% /dev /dev/mapper/vg-Home 4.0G 410M 3.4G 11% /home /dev/mapper/vg-Common 32G 14G 17G 45% /home/prh/common /dev/mapper/vg-Local 6.0G 185M 5.5G 4% /usr/local /dev/mapper/vg-Srv 40G 8.2G 30G 22% /srv /dev/mapper/vg-UsrBits 30G 4.8G 24G 17% /usr-bits tmpfs 6.0G 40K 6.0G 1% /tmp shm 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev/shm /dev/md/1 54M 23M 28M 46% /boot That's with /usr/portage in /usr-bits, not in the root partition. I'd say the OP needs to boot a rescue system, copy all his files to a backup, repartition and restore. And surely, 500M is far too big for /boot: I've got 9 kernels in the 23M shown above, which I ought to prune as it's getting untidy. -- Rgds Peter.
